Bag Of Gold
Zee Avi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You found me right when
I was in the land
Of the dark and cold

Don't forget everything
That we have been
A-fighting for
Because we'll win this war
We will win this war

[Repeat: x2]
Grab the bag of gold
That was ours to hold

We'll stay up, stay on guard
All through the night
Find a place to hide
Until it's time to strike

They must know
That we will never leave
Even if they tried
Even if they tried

[Repeat: x2]




Grab the bag of gold
That was ours to hold
